On Sunday night, an Air Canada jet was carrying 72 passengers from Montreal’s Pierre-Elliott Trudeau Airport to New York. But as the flight crew made landing just before Midnight at LaGuardia Airport, things spiraled into disaster when the jet collided with a fire truck. Two pilots have lost their lives and 41 people have been taken to hospital. What factors could have played into this deadly crash? Kristy Cameron chats with Dennis Wyche, a man who has worked in Air Traffic Control for 35 years and also holds a private pilot’s license. He previously served as a System Specialist on NAV Canada’s Surface Surveillance System.
